mountains from Cache Valley on
horseback, land proceeded all right till he
arrived at point some twenty miles
from Hyrum, in Cache County. Here,
however, the snow became very deep,
and not being frozen. made progress
tedious. By dint of hard work he
succeeded in advancing about
two miles in four hours. This stage
took him to within a couple of miles
OF what is known as the DANTE dug
way and there he lay until the latter
part OF the night when the moon arose.
There he tied his horse and went ahead
on loot; out the progress was slow and
uresome and the snow was so soft he
had to crawl great part of the four
teen miles on all tours. Finally, he
arrived at midnight on the evening of
the second day and after warming up
and taking nap, seemed as fresh and
vigorous as ever Mr.. KearI sent his
son on snow shoes the day following,
to take the horse back to Cache Valley.

Ogden's Permanently.

Atintervais Of more or less regularity
there is report circulated and given as
much currency as possible, that Ogden Is
future is not settled. Those who cir
culate such reports, and those who give
them credence, are usually not inter
ested in the material advancement of
our city, and not infrequently repre-
sent rival interests. VI hen this fact is
considered, it is not surprising that
such stories should be told; but when
the facts are considered, one would sup
pose that all who are acquainted with
them would not lose courage, but
would, on the contrary ,Suse every en-
deayors TO refute tbs false assertions.
Now, to every person who has taken the
trouble to investigate the facts, facilities
aud prospects, it is a patent fact that
Ogden can not much longer remain in
a state of inertia. The. commencement
of the Union depot marked an eres in
the material progress of tee city, that
was the first announcement of the glad
tidings of good times. Those who have
known, have never lost confidence in
the new enterprise. The Union Pacific
Railroad has been forced to make the
start; they have, by prospective COM
petition, and, unless signs are very de-
ceptiYe, the competition will reach here
very soon, and cause boom that will
be simply uncomfortable. OSserV-
ing the signs of improvement and
knowing the solid bases upon which
they are founded, eastern capital is be
ginning to seek investment here.
Capitalists are looking the field over
very cautiously and whenever they can
find bargains in real estate are quietly !
taking them in. Then eastern whole |
Salers are conducting negotiations for |

at this point, and this fact seems to
bear out the theory that the interstate |
commerce law has come to our relief |
aud presented opportunities that need |
only to be grasped and turned in the |
proper channel to bring prosperity |
smiling to our arms. Then there is |
every prospect of the erection of ex-
tensiye gas works in the immediate |
future. Besides this there are mum

and taking tie matter as a whole ana |
looking the situation squarely in the |
face in the light of all the surroundings !
it seems that we are on the eve OF most |
brilliantly bright career.
Still it needs the cooperation of every |
interested man to reap the benefits We |
may most desire, and we do not believe |
We would be rash in saying that the |
business men of Ogden propose to put
their efforts forth in the right direction |
and work with vim to bring pros

to all others.

GAS WITHOUT JOKING.
A New Enterprise That Makes Fair
Promises.

The following petition to the City
Council which was filed in the Re-
corder's Office yesterdays self-explana-
tory and if the new concern will do what
they profess to do, they should meet
with no opposition.
OGDEN, Utah, March "a, 1857.
To the Honorable the Mayor and City Council
| Of Ogden City:
! GENTLEMEN:-We beg leave to submit to
you for your consideration the following
! proposition, TO wit:
If you will grant US an ordinance for the
term OF twenty years for the purpose of lay
ing down gas mains in streets and alleys for
the purpose of supplying the inhabitants OF
your city with gas, we will agree to COM
mence the construction OF tirst-class coal
gas works within sixty days, and to complete
the same within one year from the date of
the passage of said ordinance. we WILL also
agree to furnish Illuminating coal gas of
not less than sixteen-candle power and
agree to make prices to consumers not to
exceed (S275) two dollars and seventy i've
cents per one thousand cubic feet, for all
gas con- umed up to FIVE thousand cubic feet
per month; and to parties consuming over
nye thousand cubic feet per month we viii
make the price not TO exceed (S2 5O) two dol
lars ana fifty cents per one thousand cuplc
IeeG. we agree TO put IN all service pipes
and set meters free of charge or cost to all
consumers and no meter rent to be charged;
and II at any time your city should des1reto
use gas for the purpose OF lighting your
streets, we will agree to furnish al! lamp
posts, lanterns, burners, ETC., etc., free OF
cost to the city, and will furnish gas Tor said
streetlamps at a cost not to exceeds 5O) two
collars and fifty cents per month for each
lamp. We have completed works at Helena
and Butte City. NJ. T., and can furnish you
any reference or bond you may require for
the faithful performance of our proposition.
Yours respectfully,
MCLONoUGH d Co.
Mr.. McDonough has been in the city
for few days looking up the enter
prise, and the above document, which
will be presented at the next meeting of
the Council. is the result OF two inYeStl-
cations.
That we need gas is q proposition
that no one seems disposed to contra
dict. and as the proposition CT Melon
ough & Co. seems to be fair one, they
will probably experience no particular
trouble in carrying out their project.
It is quite probable that portion OF
the stock will be taken by local gentle
men.
